A quick Miracleborn update:

Aimee has been trying very very hard, pushing and pushing, and Emeline's head just doesn't want to fit through that opening, so she's been sent in for a C-section.

Emma should be among us shortly.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'll be going dark for the next two weeks while on vacation where I don't expect to have Net access (Caribbean cruise). See you when I get back!

All is well that ends in pizza.

Okay folks, ~ma request time again.

I just got a call from a recruiter who wants me to be one of two candidates presented to a company that's only a 30 minute drive away, all freeway.

It's a contract tech support/helpdesk/network position, and pays well, so any job~ma you can spare the next few days would be helpful.

Great, and now it's shut down from over-use. Sigh.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

A bit of good-karma vibeage for my friend Marlene's 25-year-old recently newlywed daughter, Abby, is requested tomorrow morning. She's going in for a biopsy of a very hard and very suspicious lump in her neck, which her doctor has described as a "complex unidentified mass".

We would like this to be a cyst of some sort, easily removed by needles aspiration, rather than anything more serious.

Thanks.

Ola Chicago Buffistas!

I'm posting from the Apple store here in Chi. Bunch of us are going out tonight to the Country Calendar Show at Fitzgerald's. Please feel free to join us! Show starts at 9:00 - we'll probably be there before hand. So far I've talked tommyrot, brenda, knut into coming.

We're also planning on meeting in Wicker Park tomorrow before the Quimby's event at 7:30.

Last night Knut and I went to see Kelly Hogan at The Hideout. We had a blast. Fun! Yay!

Matt's home - sleeping in the big chair. I must wake him in a bit so I can go get his pain killer. The doctor was really pleased- got more of the nerve than he thought he would be able to -- he said" I'm not going to say I'm proud of myself - but I'm proud of myself". I like his doctor. Funniest thing - matt was semi awake durring the surgery and kept trying to look at what they were doing.
